sir
Ihave a plot in my registered in my name
and as i was young at the time of registration my father had told someone else to pay the taxes and i assume they had been doing it for him and now when i asked them to give me the tax receipts so that i can pay my self and take care of my property they are stalling without giving me any reply.
Please advice me how i can get the tax receipts of a property belonging to me,i have the registered deed of the property.please suggest if and how I should get them from the muncipal office.

You need to make an application to the local municipality for assessing you to tax with respect to the plot; a copy of the document showing your name as the owner of the property will have to be enclosed. Municipalities have prescribed forms for making such applications, pl check locally. There is a possibility that the process may not be over without receiving objections.
